Course Access: Lifetime
Course Overview

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

 

This
course prepares the learner for entry level practice in the Specialty of WOC
Nursing.  Practice development
materials as well as foundational clinical knowledge that crosses the scopes
of the WOC Nursing are the focus of this course. For the novice or nurse who
is relatively proficient in WOC Nursing, topics in this course are likely to
present a challenge. Developing a WOC Nursing Practice, marketing and role
implementation represent foundational knowledge included in the course as
well as history of the specialty, legal and ethical issues pertaining to
implementation of the role, and professional growth (i.e., WOCN® Society,
certification). Clinical topics that cross the scopes of WOC Nursing Practice
presented in this course include: 
comprehensive patient assessment, evidence-based practice, moisture
associated skin damage, education and communications. Two requirements of
graduation as a WOC Specialty nurse include completing a clinical practicum
(or simulation lab experience) and a final project; both will be explored in
this course.
